wooden fence post and rail church mini digger Archives -

Wooden fencing at Llangunnor Church,Carmarthen.We were commissioned to extend the graveyard which involved removing a hedgeline of trees and replacing it with a wooden post and rail fence as the graveyard had become overcrowded.The first phase was done in the spring and is on a previous blog on this website.This is the final phase and the wooden fence had to be measured accurately making room for a gate at the top of the graveyard,the reason for this is that the gravediggers can get in to dig out the new graves.

It has opened up the graveyard and has provided a lot more space to use.It took us three days to complete the works and the ground was shale and stone and took a lot of sweat and tears to dig out for the posts,we then nailed the rails to the posts and put a layer of stock wire on the bottom to stop livestock from coming through the fence.

The church is very well maintained and we usually keep the grounds of the church and vicarage in good order as well.
